Workers' Party of Quebec

The Workers' Party of Quebec was a socialist political party in the Canadian province of Quebec that existed from 1899 to 1960. The party advocated a state-run economy, secularism, full citizenship rights for ethnic minorities and immigrants, and advocated pacifism; it focused on workers' rights instead of nationalism. The party gained a substantial amount of support among the working class due to its involvement in the Quebecois labor movement.
